MRAM-Info interview with Dr. Saied Tehrani, Everspin's COO

Dr. Saied Tehrani, Everspin's COO, is discussing Everspin's MRAM product and future roadmap, and his take on STT-RAM and other technologies.

He reveals that Evespin plans to release 16Mbit MRAM in 2009, and predicts that by 2015 MRAM will have the densities to rival DRAM and FLASH (NOR) memories.This is an exciting interview with the world's leading MRAM company.

Spin Injection MRAM Analysis

An interesting technical article by Motoyuki Oishi from TechOn Japan. The article explains Spin-Injection MRAM, its applications, what has been done so far and what needs to be done before it reaches mass market. 

"Spin injection MRAMs have an excellent chance of winning a major market in the future because they combine the functional advantages of existing memories like DRAM and NAND Flash with performance superior to most"

Freescale Pushing MRAM Technology Toward Automotive Goal

An interesting article in Semiconductors International about Freescale's efforts to bring their MRAM chips to the automative industry. "Automotive customers are more challenging than the military, he said, with “zero defect” programs in place that demand incoming failure rates of <1 part per million (ppm). Freescale is working with most of the major automakers on testing MRAM reliability at the automotive-grade temperature range of 40-125°C."

MRAM – The Birth of the Super Memory

An interview with John Salter, Freescale's MRAM Product Development Manager. Discusses the technical attributes of their MRAM chip.

John says - "Freescale has no plans to compete in the High Density commodity memory market. It is possible that expansion into some SRAM and Flash markets will be possible in the future, especially as embedded memory in our microcontrollers."
